Psalm 105:27–36

They performed his signs among them

and miracles in the land of Ham.

He sent darkness, and made the land dark;

they did not rebel against his words.

He turned their waters into blood

and caused their fish to die.

Their land swarmed with frogs,

even in the chambers of their kings.

He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,

and gnats throughout their country.

He gave them hail for rain,

and fiery lightning bolts through their land.

He struck down their vines and fig trees,

and shattered the trees of their country.

He spoke, and the locusts came,

young locusts without number,

which devoured all the vegetation in their land

and ate up the fruit of their ground.

He struck down all the firstborn in their land,

the firstfruits of all their strength.

They performed his signs among them,

his wonders in the land of Ham.

He sent darkness and made the land dark—

for had they not rebelled against his words?

He turned their waters into blood,

causing their fish to die.

Their land teemed with frogs,

which went up into the bedrooms of their rulers.

He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,

and gnats throughout their country.

He turned their rain into hail,

with lightning throughout their land;

he struck down their vines and fig trees

and shattered the trees of their country.

He spoke, and the locusts came,

grasshoppers without number;

they ate up every green thing in their land,

ate up the produce of their soil.

Then he struck down all the firstborn in their land,

the firstfruits of all their manhood.

They performed his miraculous signs among them

and wonders in the land of Ham.

He sent darkness, and it became dark—

for did they not defy his commands?

He turned their water into blood

and caused their fish to die.

Their land was overrun with frogs,

even in their royal chambers.

He spoke, and insects came—

gnats throughout their country.

He gave them hail for rain,

and lightning throughout their land.

He struck their vines and fig trees

and shattered the trees of their territory.

He spoke, and locusts came—

young locusts without number.

They devoured all the vegetation in their land

and consumed the produce of their land.

He struck all the firstborn in their land,

all their first progeny.

They performed miraculous signs among the Egyptians,

and wonders in the land of Ham.

The Lord blanketed Egypt in darkness,

for they had defied his commands to let his people go.

He turned their water into blood,

poisoning all the fish.

Then frogs overran the land

and even invaded the king’s bedrooms.

When the Lord spoke, flies descended on the Egyptians,

and gnats swarmed across Egypt.

He sent them hail instead of rain,

and lightning flashed over the land.

He ruined their grapevines and fig trees

and shattered all the trees.

He spoke, and hordes of locusts came—

young locusts beyond number.

They ate up everything green in the land,

destroying all the crops in their fields.

Then he killed the oldest son in each Egyptian home,

the pride and joy of each family.

They set before them the words concerning his signs

and portents in the land of Ham.

He sent darkness and made it dark,

and they did not rebel against his words.

He turned their waters into blood

and it killed their fish.

Their land swarmed with frogs,

even in the chambers of their kings.

He spoke, and there came flies

and gnats throughout all their territory.

He gave hail for their rains

and the fire of lightning in their land.

And he struck their vines and fig trees,

and shattered the trees of their territory.

He spoke and there came locusts

and young locusts without number.

And they ate up all the vegetation in their land,

and they ate up the fruit of their ground.

And he struck down all the firstborn in their land,

the first of all their virility.

They shewed his signs among them,

And wonders in the land of Ham.

He sent darkness, and made it dark;

And they rebelled not against his word.

He turned their waters into blood,

And slew their fish.

Their land brought forth frogs in abundance,

In the chambers of their kings.

He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies,

And lice in all their coasts.

He gave them hail for rain,

And flaming fire in their land.

He smote their vines also and their fig trees;

And brake the trees of their coasts.

He spake, and the locusts came,

And caterpillers, and that without number,

And did eat up all the herbs in their land,

And devoured the fruit of their ground.

He smote also all the firstborn in their land,

The chief of all their strength.
